Description: | Early Medieval (Anglo-Saxon) cast copper alloy small square headed brooch fragment. Only a partial foot plate survives. The entire outer edge is damaged and worn. The upper surface is decorated with a raised lozengeform containing a worn style I design. The area outside of the lozenge was also decorated, however this is now worn and unclear. The reverse of the foot has the remains of an integrally cast catch plate. The top of the foot plate is bent backwards where it would have joined the bow. The brooch has a dark green-black patina. It is 18.11mm long, 14.02mm wide, 1.52mm thick increasing to 5.81mm to include the catchplate. It weighs 1.7 grams. | Subjects: | Small square headed | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Creator: | McLean, Laura - Portable Antiquities Scheme | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
